Shockwave generates < 100 > dislocation loops in bcc iron

Abstract: The formation mechanism of < 100 > interstitial dislocation loops in ferritic steels stemming from irradiation remains elusive, as their formations are either too short for experiments, or too long for molecular dynamics simulations. Here, we report on the formation of both interstitial and vacancy dislocation loops in high energy displacement cascades using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations with up to 220 million atoms. Riding the supersonic shockwave generated in the cascade, self-interstitial atoms… Show more

“…From 2 ps to 20 ps, the RDF curves almost never change and show that the damage has formed a stable structure. This result is in agreement with ~ 2 ps in a different material [23]. Interstitial atoms only possess local rearrangements, without much change in their positions from 2 ps.…”
